update (finally):

the notch cover is fixed to the frame (for now) until i get the box 'done'. the notch cover has holes in it to access the tire valves atop my bags, no air management this summer (oh well). you can see how much the wishbone is triangulated in the 2nd pic. the truck's keeping the 4cyl so i figure the short arm setup will be just fine. my next project is getting a V8 for sure and 30+" link bars. i know the frame isnt boxed yet but it is on the 'to do list'.

the bed floor is cut out and i hope to mount the bed tmr. maybe plates and start driving it - so stoked

well if you cover the shipping I might have a set of arms for 850 here...
they don't come with the upper cross shafts but if you save yours when removing the uppers you'll be fine or pick up a set cheap from the parts store...
let me know they are already powder coated black with bushings no shock tabs, just clean looking
